Recap
Big CatBrett Brown is not the right coach for the 76ers
I don't think Brett Brown is the guy because, like I said, three shot clock violations. I think one of them might have been a block on Jimmy Butler... He did a good job with a young team bringing him along. But when you lose like they did last year and then lose this year, I feel like you have to change at least something.
PFT CommenterThe mid-range jump shot still has a place in the modern NBA
Turns out Manalytics going one-on-one with a guy and hitting a step-back 14-footer still has a place in this game... The nerds, though, have been put on their heels a little bit. They're updating their stat sheets, their spreadsheets, saying, well, actually, that was actually a great shot.
PFT CommenterDamian Lillard has a 'winner's face'
He's got a winner's chin. Have you ever seen that thing? If I'm doing the old school facial recognition, like this guy's a winner, this guy's not, Damian Lillard, he's got a winner's face.
Big CatThe Warriors will beat the Trail Blazers in five games
I'm going to say the Warriors in five. Warriors in five. I'm going to get the Blazers, too. We're a big Portland podcast. We love the city.
Big CatThe 'Melo Curse' is a real phenomenon where teams fail after trading Carmelo Anthony
If USA Basketball doesn't win the next gold, I'm officially saying Melo is the best cursor of all time... Syracuse hasn't won a championship since Melo got traded. Boom. Done. Whenever he leaves your team, you don't do anything.
Big CatJason Kidd is a bad coach
I don't understand what the Lakers are doing. Their obsession with Jason Kidd is very bizarre. Jason Kidd is a bad coach. He's a bad coach.
Big CatFrank Vogel was hired by the Lakers specifically to be fired
Actually, it won't be interesting to see what happens with Frank Vogel. Frank Vogel is like – he got hired to get fired. Essentially. How long until Jason Kidd is the one that's drawing up plays on the sidelines?
HankI am officially 'Team Targaryen' and defend Daenerys' actions as a battle tactic
I want the Targaryens to be ruling at the end... You show up for battle, you've got to fucking battle... If a team against Alabama is getting blown out, they're not just going to quit halfway through the game. You don't take a knee in the third quarter.
Big CatArya Stark will be the one to kill Daenerys Targaryen in Game of Thrones
Arya is going to kill Dany, by the way... Aria's going to try to kill her, get killed, and then Jon's going to kill her. If Arya gets killed, the internet riots.
PFT CommenterJon Snow is responsible for the massacre at King's Landing because he wouldn't sleep with Daenerys
Jon Snow should get some of this blame because if he just had sex with her, she probably wouldn't have gone crazy. Exactly. Just sack up and fuck your aunt and save millions of lives... You can flip out while you watch a city burn and be like, we shouldn't be doing this. Or you can just squeeze off a nut the night before.
Who Is Back
Big CatJames Harden definitively lacks the clutch gene
Now we finally have a guy who we can say lacks the clutch gene. Definitively. He and Chris Paul. No clutch gene between the two of them.
Interview
Rick FoxI would want Robert Horry taking a last-second shot over Kobe Bryant
[Big Cat asks: Who would you rather have taking that last shot?] Robert. Robert, yeah, Big Shot Bob. Big Shot Bob. There was never any doubt at the end of the game. He could have three points that game, and he had the ball, he was going to make it.
